 (j) DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 6 thereof, a new accountability device embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.
As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 6, the firefighter accountability assembly 10 generally comprises a master board 12 that may be mounted on a vertical support surface thereby facilitating the master board 12 to be visible to a user. The user may be a fire station commander or other authorized individual that tracks the assignment and location of firefighters during a response to a fire. The master board 12 is comprised of a magnetic material such as magnetic metal or the like.
The master board 12 has a first surface 14, a first lateral edge 16, a second lateral edge 18, a top edge 20 and a bottom edge 22. The first surface 14 has category indicia 24 printed thereon comprising the words “safety”, “medical”, “RIT” and “staging”. The words are spaced apart from each other and are distributed along the first lateral edge 16 of the master board 12. The first surface 14 has a rectangle 26 printed thereon and the rectangle 26 is centrally positioned on the first surface 14. The first surface 14 has letter indicia 28 printed thereon comprising the letters “A, “B”, “C” and “D” that is each positioned within the rectangle 26 and is each aligned with a respective one of four sides of the rectangle 26. The first surface 14 has rehab indicia 30 printed thereon comprising a rehab block that is aligned with the bottom side of the master board 12. The first surface 14 has on deck indicia 32 printed thereon comprising an on deck block that is aligned with the bottom side of the master board 12 and is positioned adjacent to the rehab block.
A plurality of panels 34 is provided and each of the panels 34 is assigned to a respective one of a plurality of emergency vehicles. The emergency vehicles may be fire trucks, ambulances and other emergency vehicles that are assigned to the fire station. Each of the panels 34 has a front surface 36 and a back surface 38, and the front surface 36 of each of the panels 34 has a plurality of wells 40 extending toward the back surface 38. The wells 40 on each of the panels 34 are vertically distributed on the front surface 36 and the wells 40 are arranged into a pair of columns. The front surface 36 of each of the panels 34 has emergency vehicle indicia 42 printed thereon comprising a name of the respective emergency vehicle. The emergency vehicle indicia 42 on each of the panels 34 are positioned between the wells 40 on the panels 34 and a top side of the panels 34.
A plurality of tumbler units 44 is provided and each of the tumbler units 44 is rotatably coupled to a respective one of the panels 34. Each of the tumbler units 44 has a plurality of numbers 46 printed thereon. Moreover, each of the tumbler units 44 is assigned to an emergency responder who is assigned to the respective emergency vehicle with respect to the panel on which each tumbler unit is positioned. Each of the tumbler units 44 is manipulated by the assigned emergency responder to display a pre-determined numerical code that has been assigned to the assigned emergency responder. In this way each of the tumbler units 44 on each of the panels 34 can display the emergency responders that are assigned to and are on board each of the emergency vehicles. Thus, the tumbler units 44 communicate the location and assignments of the emergency responders to the user or other observer. Moreover, the panels 34 and the tumbler units 44 serve to replace the current use of par-tags to account for emergency responders on each emergency vehicle.
Each of the tumbler units 44 comprises a plurality of wheels 48, and each of the wheels 48 has an outer surface 50 extending around an entire circumference of the wheels 48. The outer surface 50 of each of the wheels 48 has numerical indicia 52 printed thereon comprising the numbers zero through nine. Each of the wheels 48 is rotatably positioned in a respective one of the wells 40 in the respective panel 34 having the outer surface 50 being exposed on the front surface 36 of the respective panel 34. Additionally, each of the wheels 48 is manipulated to display a selected one of the numbers 46 thereon thereby displaying the pre-determined numerical code. Each of the wheels 48 may have all of the letters of the alphabet printed thereon and the wheels 48 may be manipulated to display the name or an abbreviation of the name of the assigned emergency responder.
A plurality of magnets 51 is provided and each of the magnets 51 is coupled to the back surface 38 of a respective one of the panels 34. The plurality of panels 34 is divided into a set of emergency vehicle panels 53 and a set of master board panels 54. The emergency vehicle panels 53 are assigned positioned within the emergency vehicle to which the emergency panel 52 is assigned. Each of the magnets 51 on the emergency vehicle panels 53 magnetically engages the emergency vehicle to retain the emergency panels 52 on the emergency vehicle. Additionally, the emergency vehicle panels 53 are positioned in a conspicuous location within the assigned emergency vehicle. Each of the magnets 51 on each of the set of master board panels 54 magnetically engages the first surface 14 of the master board 12 to retain the set of master board panels 54 on the master board 12.
A plurality of locks 56 is included and each of the locks 56 is movably coupled to a respective one of the panels 34. Each of the locks 56 engages a respective one of the wheels 48 to inhibit the respective wheel from rotating. Moreover, each of the locks 56 is manipulated to selectively disengage the respective wheel 48 thereby facilitating the respective wheel 48 to rotate. Each of the locks 56 may be spring loaded locks 56 that are biased to frictionally engage the respective wheel 48 or any other type of releasable mechanical lock. Alternatively, each of the tumbler units 44 may be replaced with a digital display that displays the name of the assigned emergency responder.
In use, the master board 12 is positioned in the fire station, carried by the fire station commander or employed in accordance with established emergency responder accountability practices in fire stations. Each of the set of emergency vehicle panels 53 is positioned in the assigned emergency vehicle as a replacement for existing par tags employed by fire stations. Each of the wheels 48 on each of the tumbler units 44 is rotated to display the pre-determined numerical code, or the name, of the assigned emergency responder. In this way each of the emergency responders that are assigned to the assigned emergency vehicle is displayed. Additionally, each of the set of master board panels 54 is positioned on the master board 12 to indicate a location and assignment of each emergency vehicle with respect to the fire response. In this way the location of each emergency vehicle, as well as the location of each emergency responder, can be tracked during the response to the fire.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
